We have been using Rascals now for our children since 2013, very pleased with the service our children have, really enjoyed their time in the nursery. The staff are really good with them, the structure there is great too, good preparation for the transition to nursery school. The only downside would
be the fact that the days they are in are set, I understand that this has to be the case due to places available in each room, but being a shift worker it would help if the days were flexible, as it means having to arrange alternative child care if my shifts do not fall on nursery days. Also, bank holidays are another problem to cover with child care. Access to the online forum enabled me to check on them throughout the day - it would help if details about outbreaks of childhood illnesses and other information that is usually up at the entrance to the nursery was also posted on the online forum.

My daughter has been at Rascals for 6 months now and I can honestly say that it was the best choice of childcare that I found for my daughter who was 7 months old at the time. As the time to go back to work approached, the stress and worry of who was going to take care of her and who I was going to
trust with my baby was a real struggle. I wanted the best and I found the best here at Rascals Day Nursery. The warm welcome that my daughter receives here every day, with big smiles, it makes it a very easy transition. I've had no teary goodbyes, she absolutely loves it. They have a well-run facility that meets all the needs for my daughter, excellent communication between parents and providers, clean and safe environment. All staff are warm and welcoming and I would highly recommend for any age.

Our son has been part of Rascals since 2014. Leaving him to return to work was a big issue for me. He was 11 months old and the girls at Rascals made my return to work so easy. Our son was happy and content and the girls genuinely work as if they are 1 big family.
I will be sad to see my son leave
the nursery. I would highly recommend any parent to consider Rascals as a nursery for their child.

I was very anxious about sending my son to nursery, so with a heavy heart I went to view Rascals and could not have been more impressed with what I saw. In one of the rooms, there was a sick child being nursed by one of the girls as if the child were their own and I knew my son would be in safe hands.
My son started when he was 10 months and left when he started school. During this time Rascals were like a second family and the girls were always on hand to give advice. My son had some physical problems and needed physio, Rascals had an Occupational Therapist that comes once a month and this greatly improved my son's movements alongside his own physio. I now have a daughter there and she is coming on leaps and bounds due to the learning environment at Rascals.
I couldn't recommend the place enough. I love that I can keep up to date with my daughter throughout the day with the 'My Nursery App.'

Rascals has a lovely, welcoming atmosphere. All staff are extremely attentive and friendly and show a genuine interest and care towards the children. They provide detailed, daily feedback which is updated throughout the day and can be obtained online.
Rascals provide a comfortable, stimulating environment,
which is well resourced and a variety of play activities to enhance the intellectual, social, emotional, language and physical development of the children. They provide a healthy, nutritious, varied menu.
However, it is expensive and as a result, we only use it 3 days per week.

Reply from Lisa Talbot, Manager at Rascals Day Nursery

Thank you for your kind comments. They are very much appreciated, by myself and the team. It's a pleasure to have you as part of our Rascal family.

My son has attended nursery for nearly 1.5 yrs and he couldn't be happier and neither could I.
Staff are all pleasant and approachable. My son does a lot of activities and has regular outdoor time. This Nursery has made it very easy for me to return to work
